Up early again. Bus to Hervey Bay. The beach here is pretty crap. Hervey Bay is just a stopping off point for Fraser Island. Still, the beach was interesting for it's crab life. We spent the day at the backpacker's swimming pool wasting time.

Good job the rainy season hasn't affected us yet. Overnight bus to Airlie Beach. This is not too bad. I'm either getting used to this or my back's quite a bit better.

Tough life being a backpacker. Overnight bus trips were a but of a problem for me. Sitting long periods was still a bit much for my back and coach seats in particular were uncomfortable. Too narrow, didn't recline much and it was difficult to get up and walk around. Trains were always easier but Australia is not well endowed with a decent rail system.
Noosa to Hervey Bay - 188km
Hervey Bay to Airlie Beach - 875km
Total distance since Sydney - 2,290km
